During the opening of the Development Dialog on "Macroeconomic Policies for the Future We Want," United Nations Deputy Secretary-General Jan Eliasson and the President of the General Assembly, Nassir Abdulaziz Al-Nasser, both stressed that future policymaking should be focused on job creation and protection of the environment.

Jan Eliasson called for a "far-reaching vision" and said that it is important to discuss integrated policies that aim at "sustained, inclusive and equitable economic growth."

Nassir Abdulaziz Al-Nasser then highlighted that it was particularly important to give full consideration to an effective integration of macro-economic policymaking into the development agenda that must be developed after the 2015 term of the Millenium Development Goals effort.

At the end of the gathering, participants agreed an outcome document which called for a wide range of actions, such as beginning the process to establish Sustainable Development Goals.
